(i ripped this off wikipedia real fast so sorry if it's lib)

In October 1776, the Public Universal Friend contracted an epidemic disease and was bedridden and near death with a high fever. Their family summoned a doctor from Attleboro, six miles away, and neighbors kept up a death-watch at night. The fever broke after several days. The Friend later reported that [deadname redacted] had died, receiving revelations from God through two archangels who proclaimed there was "Room, Room, Room, in the many Mansions of eternal glory for Thee and for everyone". The Friend further said that [deadname redacted]'s soul had ascended to heaven and the body had been reanimated with a new spirit charged by God with preaching his word, that of the "Publick Universal Friend", describing that name in the words of Isaiah 62:2 as "a new name which the mouth of the Lord hath named".

From that time on, the Friend refused to answer to their deadname, ignoring or chastising those who insisted on using it. When visitors asked if it was the name of the person they were addressing, the Friend simply quoted Luke 23:3 ("thou sayest it").  Identifying as neither male nor female, the Friend asked not to be referred to with gendered pronouns. Followers respected these wishes; they referred only to "the Public Universal Friend" or short forms such as "the Friend" or "P.U.F.", and many avoided gender-specific pronouns even in private diaries. When someone asked if the Friend was male or female, the preacher replied "I am that I am", saying the same thing to a man who criticized the Friend's manner of dress (adding, in the latter case, "there is nothing indecent or improper in my dress or appearance; I am not accountable to mortals").

editorial note: I think this is a very cool story and I really love hearing it. We've been around forever and we've been doing variations of this forever. It's really beautiful

hormone updates from ten years in, also dysphoria?I have little tiny black hairs growing on the bottom third of my upper arms now. I do not know how to feel about this, has 12.5mg cyproterone acetate betrayed me? Should I start scarfing 50mg again to try to defeat this probably very natural part of aging???

Beautiful goblin says it's just soft and downy and part of getting older but like, I am comfortable with the body hair I have now. I do not really want more...

health ventingugh there's so many things i could vent about with my health and the stressful situation it's put me in, but one thing is that it has once again pushed hrt down the road for me. i'm too busy dealing with my chronic fatigue crash and its ensuing consequences to pursue hrt rn and i'm just thinking about it rn and i'm so, so frustrated.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

semi relatedSimilarly I always worry that hrt is somehow to blame for my chronic pain/fatigue, even though it's basically impossible for that to be the cause...

I hope this doesn't push it down the road too far for you meow-hug

Sometimes I'll put it in a sauce bowl with guac sauce and lick it out.

Licking popcorn is great, I'll flatten my tongue out as much as possible to try and get as many pieces on it as possible

Transphobia, misgenderingCissies will hear me say I'm a woman, I go by she/her, and will correctly gender me once then never again. Unlimited forced transition on the cis

[–] [email protected] 9 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

seriouslyNone shall survive with their genders un-transed aubrey-bat I was in the habit of correcting people constantly and making things really awkward, being confrontational.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

Yeah I need to start being confrontational with these supposedly supportive liberals. Was gonna say I need to be an asshole but they're already being an asshole by being transphobic

venting anxieties about sibiling's potential dysphoriaTo set some background, my sibiling came out as non-binary a couple of years ago. They were 8 at the time. To this day, that is still how they feel. However, things have been changing for them recently, and while I've had thougts before, I've become increasingly concerned since I started my own transition. I think that they're feeling dysphoria, and I'm going to try having a serious conversation with them about how they feel towards growing up on T. They've already told me they're afraid of, and don't like looking in mirrors, and they still mostly look like a kid. They have started growing more body hair, and a small amount of facial hair, and I think that may be getting to them. They've told me they don't want that. I'm sorry I'm rambling, but I'm worried they're going to go through a puberty they don't want to go through, and they're not going to realize they can so something about it until they're older (like me).

I've brought up puberty blockers with my parents, but despite how good they are with most things, they seem to be against doing that. I intend to bring up HRT with my sibiling, but considering they might not know what they want for themselves, I don't want to seem pushy, nor do I want to get them on something they won't like.

Sorry, but I really had to vent. I don't even know how this relates to any of you, or myself, at all, but I needed to voice my concerns to somebody without getting into an argument about someone else's body.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 12 hours ago

spoilerHopefully your sib can get access to the treatments they need now soon, whether that be blockers or HRT (whether that be a standard binary option or if it includes things like SERMS). Guessing SERMs are a lot harder to get access to via DIY though.

Sucks cis people privilege cis-puberty over alternatives just because its what our bodies force onto us. Hopefully they wouldn't try to force their child to keep their appendix if they were suffering from appendicitis or keep their wisdom teeth while they're damaging the rest of the teeth just because its natural >.>

[–] [email protected] 9 points 13 hours ago

I wish I had a sister like you growing up meow-hug having someone to tell me what options there were and to help me get on puberty blockers or hormones would have been life-changing. It’s not pushy to let your sibling know about puberty blockers or help them make figure out what they want and you should definitely have a talk with them

[–] [email protected] 11 points 14 hours ago

Oh great, abusive parents. Yeah do whatever you can to prevent your sibling from being traumatized.

Wore a skirt in front of my mother in law for the first time today and I could see her see it and then pointedly not acknowledge it. Why is this the most common reaction that I get? It’s maddening

What reaction do you want?

I have no fuckin idea what the problem is, but I am getting more annoying about it. I wore a skirt out a few weeks ago and it's literally the first time I've worn anything other than jeans in front of my dad, in my entire decade of gendering... nothing. I am doing makeup next time.

My sister stole my eyeliner and I have no idea where she put it badeline-disgust

She was like "Oh, I borrowed your eyeliner today, look at how good it is!" and I was like "that's good" while thinking to myself that she took it from me and used it before I got the chance to. At least I know it's good eyeliner badeline-bruh

I don't know why this is the case, but I hate how hard calling myself a woman is. Maybe with time/transition progress it will be more natural feeling? I definitely want to be, so I guess I am, idk it still feels wrong.
